The Fried Chicken Shop

Episode 2 (2x2)

: 23, 2013

Rayon is an absent father out for lunch with his best mate's children, while, on the other side of the counter, Chicken Shop manager Zahid has left his family behind in Pakistan to fulfil his dreams and provide for his family's future: similar issues in different lives with different perspectives come together in the same place. Love is captured and played out in The Chicken Shop, from three girls on the pull flirting with boys over cheesy chips to a new couple snogging and declaring undying love over a tub of mayonnaise. Race and opportunity are explored over a takeaway in Brixton. Hopeful rapper Paul from the first episode returns, showing off his French rhyming skills. And Rayon defends the honour of Captain Jack Sparrow when trouble kicks off.
